King of succubus

"That's why you're with me. If I ever get lost, you just have to use your concept to help me." He said with a smile of self-confidence and then, before Sylvia continued to convince him, he plunged his hand inside the sphere!

-VWOOO!!

"...!

Sylvia could feel the problems at the time Alvine inserted his hand into the sphere but she also knew it was too late to stop him. Between her annoyance at Alvine's obstinacy and her jovial air when she saw him trust her, she could only sigh with defeat.

Tap, tap...

She created a protective barrier around them by lightly tapping the ground with her spear. Then, she remained on stand-by next to Alvine while keeping a safe distance between them for fear of being affected again by this evil energy.

Like Sylvia, Alvine could also see the size of the sphere decrease as he entered his body. Faced with the frightening speed at which his soul absorbed the dark sphere, Alvine sighed with bitterness. Once again, he had the impression that this fragment wanted to let him know once again in which camp he is supposed to be. But the thing that surprised him was that he felt nothing

'Hm? Why don't I feel anything? Even if I have absorbed this power, I see no difference.' He wondered when he saw the sphere that was now the size of a small pearl disappear in his palm as if it were an illusion.

"It's okay, we can go now." He said after completing the absorption without a hitch.

"Are you sure everything is fine?" She asked in a doubtful tone. Even if Alvine could not feel significant changes in himself, it was another story for Sylvia's piercing eyes. From the moment Alvine plunged his hand into the viscous black sphere, she could clearly see his mana veins change color to black. Even if she did not know what it could mean, nor the future repercussions that will follow... her instinct told her not to rely on appearances!

As for Alvine, who had just noticed his agitation, made only a slight nod. In all honesty, he felt nothing but a feeling of appeasement; as if he had found something that had belonged to him from the beginning. "Let's get out of here." He says briefly after understanding the purpose of his fragment. Was it his enemy or his ally? Was it really his fragment? Unfortunately, Alvine did not have the slightest answer to her answers at the moment but it was not so bad to learn the truth about oneself, even if it was with an enemy. For now, he knew at least what to expect and the consequences of his actions when he becomes reckless with darkness.

"Wait for a moment, master. I know that the time may be wrong but it's still the right time to talk to you about something important."

After confirming that he was not affected, Sylvia dissuaded him from leaving the unknown dimension telling him that she had something to say to him.

Alvine slightly raised his eyebrows and asked. "Do you want to talk about Randolph? I remember telling me not to talk about him unless we were in a place where the "System" will not be able to interfere."

"Indeed. Sigh, I am reassured. Faced with your nonchalance, I suppose you are not under surveillance here, aren't you?" She asked while removing her armor that was expanding in her body as if she were one with her.

"Um." Alvine nodded with affirmation. The reason for its nickname that differentiated from Sylvia's was not important to them. Most importantly, both knew they were talking about the same thing.

"Very well, then I have nothing more to fear for your safety and that of Lady Rina's Apostle. The best thing would be to get rid of it as much as possible. It gives you the impression of helping you progress as quickly as possible in your cultivation but this is not the case. On the contrary, the more you use this thing, the more you will degrade! I don't know all the details about his powers but just having this bug in your brain is a problem in itself. It's as if your life doesn't belong to you. You know just like me that the brain is the place where the sea of consciousness lodges. The brain and heart are essential organs for cultivation."

"If the heart allows us to store mana, the brain is the engine that allows us to collect energy towards the heart and it is also this same orange that allows us to decode magic formulas to cast spells. An immortal mana cultivator will only be a simple mortal if he ever loses control of one of these two organs. Just like during your accident. But luckily, you were able to recover. Even if now I know it was not lucky, from what I have learned from you since I came into this dimension. In short, if you wish, I can help you get rid of it once and for all before this guy begins to be wary of you." She panted slightly after giving a long explanation to Alvine without stopping to catch her breath.

"No, not yet." Answered briefly after listening to her long explanations.

"What?! Why are you so stubborn? Did you know that you can lose your life at any time? Even if you're not afraid to die, you still have to find it boring to start from scratch after each death, don't you?" She growled with irritation at Alvine's obsession.

Upon hearing her words, Alvine had a forced smile. Knowing that Sylvia had misinterpreted his refusal, he gave her explanations. "Then answer me honestly, in your opinion, what will happen to Hélène? Can you guarantee me that she will escape unscathed in this incident?" He asked while looking straight into her pupils who had regained their black colors. Even if he couldn't say that he knows Sylvia well, Alvine was sure of one thing, this girl didn't care about the lives of people who were not at her level.

'...'

And he could confirm it just by seeing her silence. "Sigh, don't you answer me? This means that she won't survive, won't she?" He continued while insisting.

"Sigh, master, if you care so much about this girl, Sabrina can easily create another Hélène who will have the same personality as her! If that's not enough for you, she can make ten or even a hundred Helens if you want!" She said these words with a placidity that made Alvine's soul waver.

???????????????? ???????????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????? ???????? ????????????????????-????????????.????????????

'Indeed, this girl certainly had an appearance and powers worthy of an angel, but during this, her personality was closer to that of a demon!' He says in a stupor.

"Sylvia, will you do the same with me?" He asked with intolerance.

"No, I am unable to do so. Even if I have recovered my powers, it is impossible for me to make another Alvine with the same soul signature." She replied nonchalantly.

"Sigh, Sylvia, imagine being in Helen's place, how will you feel abandoned even though you risked your life to save me? You seem to see others as unimportant ants. But have you ever wondered what you will feel if your creator had done the same with you? Apart from your difference in power that grants you some privileges, what differentiates you from them?"

"..."

Seeing him unable to answer him, Alvine continued. "It's not another Hélène that I need, it's the same Hélène who was with us, who protected me to the point of sacrificing her life for me. Neither you nor Sabrina has the right to decide whether or not she should live because she gave her life. So don't count on it so that I'll let you decide for her and that, even if you were the one who shaped her!" He finished with this warning.

Normally, she will try to revolt against Alvine but at that time, she understood more than anyone the hidden meanings of Alvine's words. Receiving this advice from someone who was probably on the same level as her creator, she simply no longer knew what to say to refute Alvine's words. After all, she knew that Alvine was not wrong. Especially when she heard his example that had been like a pinch on her heart.

"..."

"Finally, once we find a way to save her, Sabrina or you will find her a suitable envelope for her. What do you think?? Do you think you can do that for her? Or for me, if you want?" He asked again, reformulating his request.

Upon hearing his selfish request, she sighed for retirement. "Master, do you know you will risk your life every moment you spend with this thing in your head?" She frowned while asking her question.

"Yes, I know more than anyone else."

"Sigh, I understood. But, if I ever see strange signs that threaten your life, I would not hesitate to do what my instinct will ask me to do, even if she dies for it. The relationship between master and servant is to protect the master, regardless of the sacrifices. You can hate me for eternity if you like it, but, I'm sure this little fairy will share my opinion and want the same thing. Even if it is selfish on my part, it is an irrevocable decision. Because nothing forces me to obey you." She continued by moving away from him as if she no longer wanted to discuss the subject with him.

Alvine made a subtle smile when he saw her behavior. She kept saying the same thing but in the end, she was never able not to give in to his whims.

With a simple thought, Alvine showed a black portal in front of Sylvia and nodded his head confirming that it was his work. Subsequently, Sylvia entered the portal followed by Alvine who followed in the steps behind her.

"Interesting, I am surprised myself." After Alvine and Sylvia left, two silhouettes appeared from their original locations. They were the monarch and the other fragment.

"Do you think it's a good idea to leave the master with this girl?" The monarch asked in a thunderous voice.

"Hmm, to be able to read someone's future, you must have a power superior to the target. Do you think I can read my future? Kuku, I can't wait to see him again begging me to take me back. Finally, maybe my original will eventually accomplish the impossible, aren't you curious? Will the others agree? By deciding on this path that is soaked in pitfalls, these two have not only turned their backs on universal laws but also on their pairs. As a result, a third camp has just been formed outside the two camps; light, darkness, and finally, mixed camps. Kuku, I shudder with excitement and impatience for the future." He said, by heading to the palace where the said flower was a prisoner, Reha.

"Don't look at me like that, all I could do was teleported ourselves out of the dimension. As for where we were going to land, I am not powerful enough to better control space affinity." Alvine replied when she saw Sylvia's questioning look when she saw the environment. They were neither on the planet of the Kelspies nor on Alzania. Instead, they had returned to their starting points; the planet of the Punishers, more precisely in the arena where Sabrina had brought him in their previous duel.

"Sigh, I don't accuse you of missing our destination, but I'm rather surprised that you were able to cross all the defenses we had put in place. Normally... sigh, forget that." She finally gave up. Wanting to understand Alvine's mysteries was too early for her. She herself no longer knew exactly what Alvine was. The person she thought she had known since childhood had turned out to be more mysterious than she thought.

"Welcome to you, master. Even if you caught us off guard, it's good to see you alive again, at least with us." Suddenly, Sabrina's voice resounded near the front door of the arena.

Seeing her so placid, Alvine wondered what would happen if she learns the latest news. How would she react? Unlike Sylvia, Sabrina was still a decisive person who will not hesitate after making her decision.

-Clap,

Suddenly, Alvine found himself chained by her with the simple snap of her fingers. Alerted, Alvine looked at her with questioning eyes. Why did he suddenly find himself tied? "Sigh, it seems you're already aware of everything, Sabrina." He says with a sigh.

"Not quite. But from the moment you set foot in this arena, I found that the best decision would be to immobilize you by hearing that I have confirmation of one thing." She affirmed in a placid tone without frowning. The reason she was suspicious was only centered on "possession". 'What will happen if the other entity were able to make him lose his mind at any time as he had done with him the previous time? I thought it was enough to leave Sylvia with him but, it seems that even Sylvia is powerless in the face of this dark entity that is in him. Sigh, the master really doesn't allow us to get bored with him. It's also the same for rest!' She says to herself in a tone of pleading
